Advice you can trust
Our accredited university-trained audiologists are not paid commissions or bonuses and do not have sales targets. Because we are independent, we can choose from leading hearing-aid and device manufacturers and recommend what we believe will best suit you.
When should you arrange a hearing assessment?
Consider booking an assessment if you:
- find it difficult to follow conversations, particularly in groups or noisy places
- often ask people to repeat themselves
- turn the television or radio up louder than others prefer
- have difficulty hearing on the phone
- feel tired from concentrating to hear
- have hearing aids that are no longer meeting your needs
- need hearing testing for work, licensing or a medical assessment
- would like advice about protecting your hearing
Our services
Hearing assessments
We assess your hearing and explain the results in clear language. We will discuss whether treatment, monitoring, hearing technology or another referral may be helpful.
Hearing aids and assistive devices
We fit and program modern digital hearing aids and other devices from leading manufacturers. Our care includes rehabilitation, adjustments, maintenance and ongoing support.
Adult cochlear implant services
If hearing aids are no longer providing enough benefit, we can assess whether a cochlear implant may be an option. We also provide post-implant follow-up and sound-processor mapping.
Ear wax removal
Our qualified clinicians use microsuction, curettage and irrigation to remove ear wax gently and effectively. Removing impacted wax can improve hearing and comfort and help hearing aids work as intended. We select the most appropriate method for each client.
